"Les choix qu\u2019op\u00E8re l\u2019Homme Economique (homo economicus) s\u2019expliquent pour les \u00E9conomistes essentiellement par les d\u00E9cisions d\u2019individus tr\u00E8s autonomes qui \u00AB \u00E9voluent dans des cadres restreints marqu\u00E9s par la pr\u00E9sence d\u2019un nombre limit\u00E9 de ressources, de valeurs et d\u2019institutions (Zelizer, 2011:9). Les strat\u00E9gies d\u2019affaires mixtes des mod\u00E8les de concurrence du march\u00E9 et de solidarit\u00E9 sociale, qui s\u2019appelle l\u2019entreprenariat social, notamment parmi les plus pauvres, sont souvent rel\u00E9gu\u00E9es \u00E0 la p\u00E9riph\u00E9rie \u00E9conomique o\u00F9 les valeurs d\u2019ambigu\u00EFt\u00E9 rel\u00E8vent du domaine des suppositions ou sont tout simplement class\u00E9es dans le registre sombre du \u201Csecteur informel\u201D. En appuyant sur des \u00E9tudes de cas, des recherches d\u2019archives et des donn\u00E9es d\u2019enqu\u00EAte, cette th\u00E8se montre \u00E0 quel point des entrepreneurs sociaux embarqu\u00E9s dans des r\u00E9seaux sociaux ne sont pas n\u00E9cessairement la cr\u00E8me de la cr\u00E8me, mais constituent plut\u00F4t la ligne d\u2019attaque de l\u2019\u00E9quipe; Ils cr\u00E9ent des opportunit\u00E9s d\u2019affaires et la valeur sociale par la mobilisation du capital social malgr\u00E9 leur revenus modestes. Les implications th\u00E9oriques, m\u00E9thodologiques et politiques de l'analyse montrent que l\u2019entreprenariat social a une logique d\u2019explication sur les motivations et les incitations \u00E9conomiques en tant qu\u2019une passerelle discursive entre les fronti\u00E8res disciplinaires en \u00E9conomie et d\u2019autres sciences sociales, en remettant en cause, par exemple, les suppositions qui fondent les th\u00E9ories sur l\u2019int\u00E9r\u00EAt mat\u00E9riel personnel. Les bailleurs de fonds et les gouvernements, en investissant dans les initiatives de l\u2019entreprenariat social, peuvent renforcer les capacit\u00E9s des r\u00E9seaux et des institutions afin d\u2019organiser l\u2019informel." .

"Text" . "Economics has located its central causes for the motivations of Economic Man (homo economicus) in the decisions of largely autonomous individuals who \u201Coperate within constraints set by well-defined resources, values and institutions\u201D (Zelizer, 2011:9). Hybrid business strategies that blend market competition and social solidarity models, or what is called social entrepreneurship, particularly among the working poor, are often relegated to the economic periphery, where ambiguities of value are left to the realm of assumptions or put into the black box of \u201Cinformal sector\u201D in development. Through multi-disciplinary case studies, archival research and survey data, the dissertation shows how informal social entrepreneurs embedded in social networks are not necessarily the brilliant few but the front line of the team; they open market opportunities and create social value despite low levels of income or embeddedness in the informal economy by harnessing social capital resources. The implications for theory, methods and practice show that social entrepreneurship has explanatory power on economic motivations and incentives because it provides a discursive bridge between the disciplinary boundaries in economics and other social sciences by, for example, challenging assumptions in theories of individual material self-interest. Donors and governments, by investing in social entrepreneurial initiatives and enabling environments in the informal economy, can increase the capacity of networks and institutions to organize informality, thereby strengthening the private sector and expanding capabilities so people can participate in a more equitable and socially inclusive economy." . . .
